Shadows, the fifth album by the Yorkshire-based folk music duo O'Hooley & Tidow, was released on 29 July 2016 on the No Masters label.
Reception
In a five-starred review for The Guardian, Robin Denselow said that O'Hooley & Tidow "sing together with the ease of a married couple, matching delicate and increasingly brave harmony vocals against O’Hooley’s thoughtful piano work. And they are exceptional songwriters, as they prove with this unusual set".[1] In a four-starred review for MOJO, Colin Irwin said that "the overriding tone of this album is as deep and subtly dramatic as the piano instrumental that gives the long-player its title.[2]
